It is said that when people are told they are going to die, they see things differently. That was certainly the case with me. I came out of the hospital and truly saw how beautiful the world was for the first time. How blue the sky, how green the grass. Everything looked more than real. To me, it still does. Hyper-real.

Hedges

I was going to call this blog post “Armoy”, which is the place in Ireland closest to the Dark Hedges, but my husband said everyone knows where the Dark Hedges are. A mystical place, it’s best known these days for the scenes of the Kings Road in “Game of Thrones” and on the weekend is usually full of tourists. Paintings of the Dark Hedges normally leave out the people, but then it’s hard to see just how BIG the trees are. Sadly a couple of months before this visit a storm brought down some of the trees, but there are plenty left yet.
